Earn a trip to Vegas in Titan Poker’s World Challenge

Monday, 4 January 2010

The football World Cup is fast approaching and Titan Poker is getting into the spirit by staging its own international event.

It’s not only the honour of representing your country and keeping up national pride that’s on offer in this tournament series though. A package to the Main Event of the 2010 World Series Of Poker in Las Vegas can also be won.

The challenge begins with two series of weekly tournaments based in 12 different countries. The top 20 players on the UK leader board from the two rounds of tournaments will join 180 players from the other regions to compete in the final eight tournaments. The top five players at the conclusion of the final eight tournament series will each win a WSOP package worth $13,000.

Tuesday is the deadline for all working Americans to have submitted their income tax returns to the federal government and Juicy Stakes and Intertops Poker are set to mark this annual occasion by holding a special freeroll competition featuring a $1,000 top prize.

“We run a lot of higher stakes tournaments for our more hard-core players,” said Intertops’ poker manager. “But since our network is generally pretty soft, we created this series to give less competitive players a shot at winning.”
